Two weeks. Two weeks had passed and Wally was just beginning to act like his old self and not pretend to be Kid Zoom. Two weeks of quiet with no kidnapping attempts from a certain witch boy... Two weeks of being fed cookies, being stalked by bats, working on bikes with clones, swimming with someone who was most like a fish, and arguing with a certain blond...
It felt normal. Which was weird considering nothing in their lives was ever normal. As of the moment though Wally was sitting with Robin bored out of his mind trying to spice things up.
"So what now?" Wally asked sitting lazily on the couch. They had tried restoring his memories but one, there seemed to be a giant magical mental block and two, Wally went all freaky when someone tried to enter his head (Superboy sympathized with the youngest speedster).
"Well... you could go see your uncle," Robin said simply. If anyone could bring Wally back it was his uncle. Wally's face twisted slightly into a smile before one of confusion.
"You sure he wouldn't mind?"
"You live with him. Of course he wouldn't."
"I know this may seem weird but why do I live with my uncle?" he asked. Ever since he had that dream of his "father" he was curious to know what happened when he was younger and how Klarion apparently single handedly ruined his life. He noticed Robin stiffen slightly.
"You... you never told us. Never told me. Your info's all gone too. I'm sorry Wally. I don't know," he admitted biting the inside of his cheek. He could feel his mind twisting itself to research his past but something told him that would be very bad. Because he did not want to break Wally's trust. Hell he just wanted Wally to remember again. Things were a lot simpler when he was the one who couldn't remember anything. Though that thought wasn't any easier. M'gann didn't have to do much to bring back some of their memories. Granted they weren't perfect but still, seeing Wally paint the Batmobile pink was rather amusing.
"Recognize, Superman 01," the computer droned on in its usual monotone. However there was a certain stillness to the air.
"Great. Super duche is here," Robin groaned. Wally raised a single brow in confusion. He was still not entirely sure why but it seemed as though the team really didn't like Superman. Though as to why, he wasn't entirely sure.
"Wally." growled a voice. Both boys jumped at what sounded like Superboy. Not Superman, but a very angry, just opened the pod, Superboy.
"Supey?" Wally squeaked. It barely took any time before a large boy in a white outfit similar to the one they found Superboy in flew at them.
"KF!" Robin yelled trying to attack the intruder. The person didn't really react as he held Wally close to his chest in a hug like manner keeping him from running away.
"Help!" he squeaked.
Earlier...
"Match."
Two black and blue eyes opened and fell onto the red haired man. Both faces were hard and black and blue eyed being's eyes narrowed. It remembered fighting. It remembered fighting something like Superman. And now... he was back in the container with someone looking at him as if assessing his worth. Someone familiar.
"You're not Superman," Match said in a hushed growl. He was not angry, merely confused. There was something he was forgetting. As he was trying to remember the man nodded.
"I'm not. But that's not what you need to do is it?" he asked. The clone shook his head as a thought of a pale red haired boy quipped in his mind.
"Where's my brother?"
"I don't know. Match? Will you be a good boy and go find him? He needs to come home don't you think?"
Match's eyes narrowed.
"Yes. He's in trouble. He's in danger isn't he?"
"Possibly. Now Match, he is a bit... confused right now so be easy with him. Don't hurt him."
"I would never hurt-"
"I know Match but he doesn't. He doesn't exactly... remember anything. He's hurt and alone. And I fear someone's after him..."
"NO! No one will hurt him!" Match yelled pulling against his restraints.
"Calm down Match. Just make sure you don't let a blue skinned boy and his cat near Wally at any cost and he'll be fine. Remember to bring him here as soon as you get him ey? There will be others trying to take him away."
"I will protect him. He's my brother."
"Alright. Go on then," Rudolph said pressing a small button which released the clone.
Match ran at full speed out of the room before crashing through the steel doors before flying out of Cadmus with the cries of hysterical workers trying to call Luthor. Sad really. Luthor used his son, so now Rudolph was using his "creation". He smiled slightly as his pocket buzzed. He pulled his phone from his pocket.
"Hello Mary," he said softly.
"Rudolph? Are you coming home soon? I miss you."
"I miss you too. But I'll be bringing back something special. It'll be worth the wait," he said happily thinking about having his two boys home with him. Technically with what Luthor said he should have three given he used his son's DNA to create Superboy but he'd get his son back first and then focus on the other insanely strong clone that actually shared his DNA.
"Alright. See you soon."
"See you," he said hanging up. He pulled out his wallet and smiled lightly at the old picture. His eyes grew dark as memories flew in his head. Klarion. He'd kill that bastardly child if it was the last thing he did... once he had Wally back.
-.-
"I knew we should have killed him," Klarion hissed to his cat. The cat merely yawned, uninterested and tired, not watching Klarion's flickering form, "Now he's getting in the way too."
To explain, Teekl is old and dying. And as for recognizing Match as Superman, they have the exact same DNA and he's programed to be smart enough to take him down so getting to him is half the fight allowing him to figure out how to get to the mountain. Review?
